| 1. |  | Jane Austen's Letters
from Oxford University Press, USA
Customer Review:
I love Jane Austen, so reading through her letters - and getting a glimpse into the mind of such an amazing person - was fantastic. I only want to warn potential buyers that this book is very poorly manufactured. I only got to the second letter before the first page literally FELL OUT - and I'm an... more info | 4.0 / 5.0

from University of Georgia Press
Customer Review:
I read this novel for a class in British Orientalist literature. It's a series of letters written by a woman who travels to the East.

The letters, occasionally one or two letters to give a sense of an important author's life, literally do give you a brief glimpse into a living life - like one of those apartment windows Edward Hopper paints, or views seen fleetingly from a train - these letters open up... more info | 4.5 / 5.0

from Oxford University Press, USA
Customer Review:
England on the eve of the modern period was a troubled place, but the Pastons made the most of it, rising from Norfolk farming to national celebrity. Their letters (covering a period from about 1420 to 1503) give a remarkably modern idea of their characters and much fascinating information about... more info | 5.0 / 5.0
